A Young Binary System Theta¹ Ori C

Based on the interferometer observations on BTA, for the first time we drew an orbit, calculated the masses, luminosity and spectral classes of the components of a very young (~ 100 thousand years old) massive (a total mass of 48 times the Sun) binary system Theta¹ Ori C in the nearest to us Orion complex of star formation.
